Hydrogen can be generated directly through Ethanol Steam Reforming (ESR) on portable reaction – microreactor. In this study, ESR was conducted by nine different variations of Pt/α- Al2O3 catalyst prepared by electroless plating method and four variations of reaction temperature between 270-315°C, atmospheric pressure, liquid feed flow of 0.5 mL/hour and molar feed composition of steam to ethanol 3:1. The result showed that the highest catalyst activity was reached at 300°C and 315°C. Time needed to reach stable hydrogen productivity at 285°C was longer than others. Average hydrogen productivity in stable condition varied between 6.31% (at 270°C) – 14.51% (at 300°C) of the highest hydrogen productivity achieved during six hours of ESR.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Coke formation,Electroless plating methods,Ethanol steam reforming (ESR),High-calorific-value,Micro-reactor,Process intensification,Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFCs),Reaction temperature[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]coke formation,ESR,microreactor,Pt/α-Al2O3,reaction temperature[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ICEVTIMECE.2015.7496650[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
